I’m not sure what to make of this, but I’ll take it. Another 4RM increase from last week. 250lbs last week, 260lbs today! Seriously, this is awesome. I will say that I’m starting to notice that the more I eat one day, the better I lift the next day. I ate so much yesterday that I felt bad. Couple that with a nice long, ZMA fueled sleep and you have a recipe for a PR!! I dig it!
4RM Back Squat; 4×4 Back Squat @ 90%
260lbs 4 Rep Max; 235lb for 4×4
Then Clean and Jerks…
EMOM for 8 Minutes: 1 Clean and Jerk @ 90%
I went for 185 1 RM, but missed the jerk. I did the workout with 165lbs and felt great. It wasn’t easy, but I felt strong even though I missed my previous 1 rep max of 185.
Then…
3 Rounds
- 10 Thrusters (115lbs)
- 25 Wall Ball Shots (20lbs)
- 2 Minute Rest
Since I missed my Jerk at 185lbs this morning, I feel it necessary to point out that there is a new Technique WOD out today. The title? 2 Ways to Increase the Amount of Weight you Jerk! I obviously need to watch this several times and put it into practice. Here’s the video:
Tomorrow is FRIDAY!! See you then…
